St Nonna's Church, Altarnun, Cornwall - Norman font (Explored) by Baz Richardson (catching up!) Known as the Cathedral of the Moors, the Grade I-listed medieval church at Altarnun on Bodmin Moor has Norman origins but was largely rebuilt in the 15th century from stones from an earlier church plus unquarried stones from the moor. The font dates from Norman times and features a fierce bearded head, still with some colours remaining. The benches date from the early 16th century, and the 79 bench ends are among the finest in Cornwall. This is considered by Simon Jenkins to be one of England's Thousand Best Churches. https://flic.kr/p/2ix4L6Q
